Quranic ayaat and hadth on research

A study of the Qur'an reveals that in the various verses or Ayath

one finds that it invites the believers to study the whole universe
including the earth and everything in between and to discover the
various natural phenomena and their schemes.
The Qur'an calls upon Muslims to observe around them and study
the physical world, so that they might appreciate the majesty of
Allah's creation. "Behold! In the creation of the heavens and the
earth; in the alternation of the night and the day; in the sailing of
the ships through the ocean for the benefit of mankind; in the
rain which Allah Sends down from the skies, and the life which He
gives therewith to an earth that is dead; in the beasts of all kinds
that He scatters through the earth; in the change of the winds,
and the clouds which they trail like their slaves between the sky
and the earth -- (Here) indeed are Signs for a people that are
wise." (Surah Al-Baqarah, 2:164)
In simplest terms science means knowledge and Islam exhorts its
followers to relentlessly pursue knowledge. In the Noble Qur'an,
Allah (SWT) ordained His servants to pray to Him thus:
" O Lord! Increase me in knowledge." (20: 114)
One of the most inspiring Ayath (verses) in the Qur'an is the
following:

"And He has subjected to you, as from Him, all that is in

the heavens and on earth: behold, in that are signs
indeed
for those who reflect." (45: 13)
The Quran inspires man to observe, experience, and investigate.
It acknowledges sense perception and experiential as rewarding.

In short, the spirit of the Quran, unlike other religions, is
scientific.
Allah says in the Quran,

"And hath made of service unto you whatsoever is in the heavens

and whatsoever is in the earth; it is all from Him. Lo! herein verily
are portents for a people who reflect." 45:13
"And of His sign is the creation of the heavens and the earth, and
the difference of your languages and colors. Lo! Herein indeed are
portents for men of knowledge." 30:22
this universe is not a finished creation. It is capable of rising, and,
in fact, is growing every moment. It is not stationary and
incapable of change; change and growth are the principal
conditions of existence in the universe. The Quran says,
Verily in the creation of the Heavens and of the Earth, are signs
for men of understanding... God causeth the day and night to take
their turn. Verily in this is teaching for men of insight. 24:44
There are those who ponder over Gods creation, for they know
that
In the creation of the heavens and the earth and the alternation
of night and day, are surely signs to men of understanding(3:
189). They are the men who keep in their mind (the law of) Allah
(SWT) sitting and standing and reclining, and reflect on the
creation of the heavens and the earth (3: 190). When they
reflect on the grandeur of nature, they are deeply moved and
exclaim: Our Lord! (Rabb) Thou hast not created this in vain (7:
190)."
